Are you aware that if you have a Facebook page, LinkedIn profile, applied to some job on some job board, wrote a blog post or commented on one, or tweeted something, some cloud-based piece of software is now looking at your online presence and determining your current and future hireability? Given this Minority Report-like approach to data gathering, it’s important to know what Big Brother is looking for if you’re now looking to change jobs or expect to do so sometime in the future.For me, predicting candidate success started many years ago.

Do struggling airlines take more safety risks than profitable ones? It's not that simple, says Peter M. Madsen of Brigham Young University. In a study of records from all large U.S. commercial airlines operating from 1990 to 2007, he found that the incidence of accidents is highest when airlines are hitting their profitability targets and lower when they're significantly missing or surpassing these goals. Decision makers may have a subconscious tendency to reduce attention to safety when their firms are performing near their profitability aspirations. Madsen offers no conjectures on why that might be, but he adds that despite his findings, U.S. commercial aviation remains “almost incomprehensively safe” for passengers.
Article has to be purchased for the details but the overview is fascinating -- safety/HR professionals in key industries should be very interested in this.

With the increasing intensity of labor shortages, social media in recruiting is becoming more important than ever before. According to recruiting guru Peter Weddle, "The art of social recruiting involves the development of two kinds of candidate relationships": Blink Relationships, those that can "establish trust and familiarity in the blink of an eye" and Red Shirt Relationships, those that involve having talent waiting "on the bench".
Some good answers to the problem here -- but summed up clearly: if this happens something is seriously wrong with the hiring process (as indicated by several of the examples in the article) and needs to be completely re-designed. Performance Profiles -- not Job Description -- and new training for ALL hiring managers.
